Elise Nzoupet

French Teacher

I feel very blessed to be able to work for Anchor Academy and be a part of a team of professionals who love the Lord and are committed to serving Him according to the gifts, abilities, and experiences He has bestowed on them. From a young age I have had a passion to learn languages. I was especially inspired by my French teacher in high school to pursue my studies in French after graduation and by my father to pursue a career in teaching. Over the years I have sought any chance I could to develop my language skills, not only in French, but in Spanish, Hebrew, Biblical Greek, and a variety of other languages to varying degrees of competency. I was a member of Wycliffe Bible Translators of Canada for 9 years, serving the Cameroon branch of SIL International from 2005-2012. My experiences during that period working as a linguist and translation worker further enriched my appreciation for the beauty and complexity of languages and cultures which only an amazing and creative God could mastermind. There still remains a deep desire in me to pursue my dreams and visions of learning new languages and/or mastering further the languages that I have already begun to learn. I am also very motivated to share this passion with young people, encouraging them, as well, to be awestruck and impacted by the great mind and compassion of God, who created and dearly loves every precious race, language, and culture around the world
